Yes of course you could do it this way - but you first need to determine the metric equivalent in order to type in the amount needed. - and it would take you a long time if you had lots and lots of dimensions to change!

But as you say this is another way to do it - agreed

We don't really know what his goal is - his question is really generic. Both ways are working fine - he will pick the right one for his goal .Now I have to think about the necessarily of a metric equivalent ...
